Not working properly on Wii #9

RetroArch Wii 1.9.2.0 / Nightly 20210512 PC floppy version, and PC CD-Rom version.

Problem: Load the core, then load any of the supported extensions. Black screen.

Tests: I was able to make it work 3 times, randomly (this only happened with the Floppy version). After that, i haven't nailed any exact way to make it work again.

First time, i loaded instru_e.map, closed the content, loaded level1.lev, closed the content, loaded level1.map, and it started working. I closed the content, tried again with the same file, black screen.

Went back to The Homebrew Channel, fired up Reminiscence core again. I loaded level1.map, closed the content, loaded level1.lev, it started working. I closed the content, tried again with the same file, black screen.

RetroArch Wii 1.12..0 / Nightly 20221023 PC floppy version, and PC CD-Rom version.

Problem: Load the core, then load any of the supported extensions. Black screen.

Tests: Exactly the same as my previous comment. Takes a lot of luck sometimes to make it work even once.

Take a look here : Blackscreen on many platforms when running by command line

If you can make a try with a retroarch.cfg without the lines which start with input_player (may be keep lines which start with input_player1_) and make a feedback please ?

If you have Settings -> Configuration -> Save Configuration on Quit enabled in Retroarch settings it will re-create these entries automatically when you exit Retroarch and break REminiscence again so I recommend to create a dedicated config file (with this option disabled) that you load with --config in your command line 😉

Probably fixed since this PR https://github.com/libretro/REminiscence/pull/15 (Requires a tester)
